Adele Geras

About this book

An extended family gathers to celebrate the seventy-fifth birthday of its formidable matriarch, Leonora. She is the daughter of the famous Edwardian painter Ethan Walsh. At the party will be her daughters and their extended families. One outsider joins the group: Sean Everard, a television director who's making a documentary about the life and work of Ethan Walsh.
